# PhishDestroy threat dossier — tarasyncora.com ================================================================ Fetched: 2026-06-29 14:05:37 UTC Canonical: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/tarasyncora.com/ ## VERDICT ---------------------------------------------------------------- TAKEN DOWN (neutralised) Composite threat score: 100/100 (PhishDestroy scoring — see methodology below) Scam classification: Crypto Drainer ## DETECTION EVIDENCE ---------------------------------------------------------------- VirusTotal: 14/91 security vendors flagged this domain Flagging vendors: ADMINUSLabs, alphaMountain.ai, BitDefender, Chong Lua Dao, CRDF, CyRadar, Forcepoint ThreatSeeker, Fortinet, G-Data, Gridinsoft, Kaspersky, Lionic, SOCRadar, Sophos Public blocklists: listed on 2 independent blocklists ## INFRASTRUCTURE ---------------------------------------------------------------- IP address: 104.21.62.21 (US, San Francisco) ASN: ASAS13335 CLOUDFLARENET - Cloudflare, Inc., US Hosting org: AS13335 Cloudflare, Inc. Registrar: NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED !!! REGISTRAR INTEGRITY ALERT — NiceNIC !!! NiceNIC International: over 90% of its registered domains are associated with illegal content; documented systematic abuse-report non-response. Primary sources: https://phishdestroy.io/nicenic-real https://phishdestroy.io/nicenic-verdict Nameservers: magnolia.ns.cloudflare.com, skip.ns.cloudflare.com Registered: 2026-05-25 Expires: 2027-05-25 Page title: Blockchain Application ## TLS CERTIFICATE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Issuer: Let's Encrypt / E7 Expires: 2026-08-23 Status: INVALID chain Fingerprint: 28f2d8010229ed5d69d1fe6cd953354920d7aeac5296d8d8179e9b946626fdab ## ABUSE-REPORT HISTORY (evidence of registrar non-response) ---------------------------------------------------------------- Status: CLOSED — no report required. This domain was neutralised before the abuse-report cycle could be dispatched — either the hosting provider / registrar suspended it on their own, the DNS went dead, or the operator abandoned the infrastructure. PhishDestroy keeps the evidence bundle on file for audit but no formal notice was sent. ## TIMELINE ---------------------------------------------------------------- Domain registered: 2026-05-25 (per WHOIS / CT — may reflect a renewal or transfer date, not first-ever registration) First detected: 2026-06-01 01:42:57 UTC (by PhishDestroy tracker) First reported: 2026-06-01 01:42:12 UTC (abuse notice filed) Last verified: 2026-06-29 12:20:34 UTC Neutralised: 2026-06-10 00:19:53 UTC Current status: taken down (registrar suspended or DNS dead) ## EXTERNAL CORROBORATION (third-party evidence) ---------------------------------------------------------------- URLScan.io: https://urlscan.io/result/019e8032-37ac-7543-a7ff-7a4956a64592/ Wayback Machine: https://web.archive.org/web/*/tarasyncora.com crt.sh CT logs: https://crt.sh/?q=%25.tarasyncora.com Google transparency: https://transparencyreport.google.com/safe-browsing/search?url=tarasyncora.com AlienVault OTX: https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/domain/tarasyncora.com URLhaus: https://urlhaus.abuse.ch/host/tarasyncora.com/ ## ANALYST NARRATIVE ---------------------------------------------------------------- [Generated: 2026-06-26 03:23:49 UTC — narrative may predate facts above. Treat fields in TIMELINE / DETECTION EVIDENCE / INFRASTRUCTURE as authoritative if they differ from the prose below.] This domain, tarasyncora.com, is flagged as a generic phishing threat specializing in cryptocurrency drainage through a fraudulent blockchain application interface. Analysis indicates the site masquerades as a legitimate cryptocurrency platform, likely deploying a crypto drainer kit designed to siphon digital assets from unsuspecting users. The page title, Blockchain Application, serves as the primary lure, exploiting interest in decentralized finance to facilitate unauthorized transactions. No direct brand impersonation is evident, but the generic blockchain theme aligns with common phishing tactics targeting cryptocurrency holders. Infrastructure analysis reveals multiple technical indicators of compromise. The domain is detected by 14 out of 95 security vendors on VirusTotal, with a Gridinsoft trust score of 0/100. It appears on two security blocklists and was registered through NICENIC INTERNATIONAL GROUP CO., LIMITED. The domain resolves to IP address 104.21.62.21, hosted behind Cloudflare, which provides additional obfuscation. Notably, the domain creation date is May 25, 2026, an anomalous future timestamp suggesting registry manipulation or data entry error. The site employs Let's Encrypt SSL certificates and supports HSTS, HTTP/3, and Cloudflare Browser Insights, indicating a technically sophisticated infrastructure despite its fraudulent purpose. Google Safe Browsing status is not provided, but the presence on multiple blocklists confirms its malicious classification. As of the latest assessment, tarasyncora.com has been taken offline, reducing immediate exposure risk. However, the elevated threat level persists due to the domain's recent activity and the irreversible nature of cryptocurrency transactions. Users who interacted with the site should immediately revoke any connected wallet permissions, transfer remaining assets to a new wallet, and monitor transaction histories for unauthorized activity. The anomalous registration date and Cloudflare hosting suggest potential for rapid redeployment under a similar domain. Security teams are advised to maintain blocklist entries for this domain and monitor for related infrastructure, including the resolving IP and registrar patterns. The use of Let's Encrypt certificates and Cloudflare services in phishing campaigns underscores the need for continuous validation of SSL issuance and CDN-hosted content. [Updates since narrative was generated:] - WHOIS creation date: 2026-05-25 - Public blocklists: now listed on 2 feeds - VirusTotal detections: now 14/91 (narrative was written when count was lower) ## EVIDENCE HASHES ---------------------------------------------------------------- Favicon MD5: 4e08df53653755fb8e78043e1c2964f4 TLS cert SHA-256: 28f2d8010229ed5d69d1fe6cd953354920d7aeac5296d8d8179e9b946626fdab ## SCORING METHODOLOGY ---------------------------------------------------------------- Composite score is NOT derived from VirusTotal alone. PhishDestroy aggregates: - VirusTotal positive ratio - Public blocklist consensus (MetaMask, ScamSniffer, OpenPhish, PhishTank, URLhaus, CryptoFirewall, SEAL, Polkadot, Enkrypt, Phishunt, DiscordPhishing, PhishingDB) - Cloaking detection (HTTP 666 or rendering delta between bot and real visitor) - DNS-filter consensus (Quad9, CleanBrowsing, NextDNS, AdGuard, Cloudflare, etc.) - AlienVault OTX pulses + Cloudflare Radar + Google Safe Browsing - URLScan / URLQuery verdicts - Brand-impersonation heuristics (DOM analysis of forms, logos, wording) - Known phishing-kit fingerprinting (favicon hash, JS obfuscation signatures) - Wallet-drainer family classification (Angel, MS, Rainbow, Pink, Inferno, ...) - Free-TLS vs paid-cert ratio (throwaway infrastructure signal) - Registrar/hosting abuse history (this registrar's track record) - Human researcher sign-off (volunteer takedown team) A domain present in our database is ALREADY flagged. A low VT count by itself does NOT mean the domain is safe — new scam domains routinely show 0/95 VT for their first 7–30 days while actively draining wallets. Always cross-reference the composite score and the individual indicators above, not just VT. ## CORRECTIONS / APPEALS ---------------------------------------------------------------- Full HTML report: https://phishdestroy.io/domain/tarasyncora.com/ JSON API: https://api.destroy.tools/v1/check?domain=tarasyncora.com Appeal a flag: https://phishdestroy.io/appeals/ (responded to within 48 hours, FP rate <0.01%) Submit a report: https://t.me/PhishDestroy_bot About PhishDestroy: volunteer-driven open-source threat-intelligence platform.
